I can't admire the intellectual horsepower of any self styled super-intellect who needs to use the word "dumb" to criticise a competing theory in the very first paragraph!
Why waste time with the rest of it?

Neither can I. Sounds like schoolyard namecalling.

Reminds me a bit of the movie "Spaceballs":

Dark Helmet: Now you see that evil will always triumph...because good is dumb.

NOTE: the author NEVER deals with the assertions of ID. Instead, the author rails against the alledged philosophical underpinnings of ID. NOT good science.

I totally agree. I didn't bother to continue with the article for fear of running into the descriptors "stinky", "dooky", and of course, the ever-intellectual "Mr. Poopy Pants".

I've read Darwin. I've read Dembski. I skimmed this guy. Darwin was smart. Dembski is brilliant. This guy does not impress. This is not a positive contribution to the debate.
